Celsitude

/ˈsɛltɪˌtjuːd/ noun

Definition

The quality or state of being Celtic; the collective characteristics, identity, or essence of Celtic peoples and cultures.

Etymology

Formed from Celt plus the suffix -itude (meaning condition or quality), modeled on words like 'altitude' and 'latitude.' This rare word was created in the 19th century by scholars wanting a single noun to capture the totality of Celtic identity.

Kelly Says

This word is so obscure that even most dictionaries don't include it, yet it was genuinely used by Victorian scholars who loved creating grand abstract nouns—'celsitude' sounds like something that should describe the majesty of Celtic history itself.
